  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan 160°C, gas mark 4).
  2. Cook the spaghetti according to the packet instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
  3. In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Cut the chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and add to the pan. Cook until the pieces are golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
  4. In the same frying pan, add the butter and let it melt. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are tender and browned.
  5. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir well to form a roux. Gradually add the milk and chicken stock, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens to make a creamy sauce.
  6. Add the cooked chicken back into the sauce and mix well to coat.
  7. Combine the cooked spaghetti with the chicken and sauce, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated.
  8. Transfer the mixture into a small baking dish. Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese on top.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper before serving.
