Part 3/7:
For flavor, marinate the chicken tenders in a mixture reminiscent of classic fried chicken. Combine buttermilk for moisture, dill pickle juice for a tangy kick, and a splash of Frank's Red Hot for some heat. Optionally, enhance the flavor profile with smoked paprika. Cover the bowl and let those tenders soak up the marinade in the fridge for two to four hours. The small size of the tenders means they will take on that flavor wonderfully in a shorter time.
The Homemade Ranch Dressing
No chicken tender is complete without an excellent dipping sauce, and for many, ranch dressing reigns supreme. Rather than relying on bottled options, making homemade ranch dressing from scratch can take the experience to the next level.
