Season both sides of the chicken breasts generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Slice the andouille sausage into 1/4-inch thick rounds.

Turn on the Instant Pot to 'Sauté' function on high heat. Add olive oil to the pot and let it heat up.

Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove them and set aside.

Add the sliced andouille sausage and minced garlic to the pot, sautéing for about one minute.

Pour in the low sodium chicken broth, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the Instant Pot.

Add uncooked penne pasta, Cajun seasoning, and seared chicken breasts back to the Instant Pot. Mix all ingredients together.

Turn off the 'Sauté' function and secure the lid on the Instant Pot with the pressure valve set to 'Sealing.' Cook on 'Manual,' high pressure, for 6 minutes.

While the pasta is cooking, warm the heavy whipping cream in a small saucepan on low heat or in the microwave. Set aside.

After the Instant Pot finishes cooking, perform a Quick Pressure Release. If starches and liquids splatter, immediately close the pressure valve using a wooden spoon or oven mitt. Wait one minute before trying again.

Once the pressure pin drops, remove the lid and take the chicken breasts out. Check their internal temperature with a meat thermometer to make sure it reaches 165°F. Allow the chicken to rest.

Add the unsalted butter, warmed heavy whipping cream, and freshly shredded parmesan cheese to the pasta. Gently stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth.

Slice the rested chicken breasts and combine with the pasta.

Serve the pasta in individual portions, topped with additional parmesan cheese and garnished with minced flat leaf parsley.
