To prepare the chicken: Sprinkle each side of the chicken with the cornstarch. Dip into the egg mixture to coat, allowing excess to drip off. Sprinkle both sides with the almonds. Coat a small nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray and heat over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 5 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink and the juices run clear. Remove from the pan and set aside. To prepare the salad: In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar, oil, and black pepper. Add the spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, and bell pepper. Toss to coat. Transfer to a serving plate. Slice the reserved chicken diagonally and place on top.<\/span><\/p>\n
