Place the chicken tenders in a shallow dish and pour the buttermilk over them. Ensure all pieces are well coated, and let them marinate for 20 minutes.

Remove each chicken tender from the buttermilk, shaking off the excess, and roll them in the cornflake mixture, pressing lightly to ensure an even coat.

Arrange the coated chicken on the lined baking sheet, taking care not to overlap.

Lightly brush the chicken with canola oil, then bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden and thoroughly cooked.
