Plain-English summary
Fresh Foods Manufacturing Co., a Freedom, Pa. establishment, is recalling approximately 701 pounds of heat-treated, not fully cooked, not shelf stable chicken products that may be adulterated with Listeria monocytogenes. The products were packaged from Oct. 10-16, 2017, and bear establishment number EST. P-40211. The recall includes four specific items: 7-oz. Chicken & Vegetable Potstickers, 12-oz.

The recall was initiated after the company received notification from a supplier on Oct. 19, 2017, that the broccoli used in the products was recalled due to Listeria concerns. These items were shipped to retail locations in Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products.
