Place the chicken tenders in a large bowl and pour over the buttermilk, ensuring all pieces are coated. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3
In a separate bowl, combine crushed cornflakes, flour, ranch seasoning, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper and olive oil. Mix well.

Take each piece of buttermilk-coated chicken and dredge it through the cornflake mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks. Place each piece on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.

While the chicken is baking, prepare the honey-dijon dip. In a bowl, combine dijon mustard, honey, cayenne pepper, and lemon zest.

Serve the baked chicken tenders hot, garnished with fresh chives, alongside the honey-dijon dip.
