Frozen Chicken Recalled After Reports of Illnesses



Aspen Foods is recalling nearly two million pounds of frozen chicken products after three people in Minnesota became ill with infections from salmonella.

The recall includes breaded, raw stuffed chicken breasts that were manufactured from April 15 to July 10, according to an announcement on Wednesday from the Department of Agriculture.

The varieties affected include cordon bleu, broccoli and cheese, chicken Kiev, chicken parmesan and buffalo-style. Packages subject to the recall can be identified by the code “P-1358” in the U.S.D.A.’s inspection mark.

Aspen’s recall follows a move by Barber Foods, which expanded its own poultry recall on Sunday to 1.7 million pounds of frozen, raw stuffed chicken products because of reports of salmonella contamination.
