It says pour heavy cream and blackening season and reduce by half. What does that mean ?

It's literally just letting a liquid simmer uncovered until your desired concentration/thickness, which in your case is until the volume is half of when you started. Watch the level of liquid on the pot, when it's halfway to the bottom boom you're done
Any "traditional cook" should be able to reduce a sauce

I would recommend sticking with a more traditional pasta dish

Cooking 95 percent technique. A properly cooked dish that is a little light on seasoning or maybe some flavors that don't match perfect is better than something seasoned right that is dry , overcooked, or burned.

Read the recipe but cooking is learning the basic techniques. Reducing a sauce is as basic as it comes. Cooks should also be able to properly sauté, fry, sear, be able to make the basic choppings (julienne, chiffinade, etc) and after that, heat management. Watch your pan, understand what's happening when steam is coming up or you hear the crackling and be able to adjust your heat. It's just practice.
