Perdue recalls 230,700 pounds of chicken strips

Privately held Perdue Farms on Thursday recalled 230,700 pounds of cooked chicken breast strips due to possible underprocessing, the U.S. Agriculture Department said.

The chicken strips were produced in February and March and were shipped to centers in Alabama, Florida, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Virginia for further distribution, USDA said.

The USDA has received no reports of illnesses from consumption of the product. The problem was discovered by Perdue Farms, USDA said.

Company officials were not immediately available for comment.

The products recalled are 10-pound cases of “Subway FC Chicken Breast Strips.” Each case contains the code “09365” or “09222.”
