Melt the butter in a large pan, and gently cook the mushrooms, celery and spring onions together until softened.
Add the flour to the mixture, and then add the chicken stock until the mixture has thickened. Be careful to continue mixing so that no lumps form.
Add the cream and allow mixture to thicken before adding in the chicken.
Cube the chicken, and cook with butter and lemon juice. Be careful not to overcook.
Once cooked, add the chicken to the mixture above. Add in the cooked spaghetti, and mix together in a baking dish.

Then remove the cover and grill for a few minutes, so that the top browns nicely
