WASHINGTON, March 3, 2016 Namias of Arizona, Inc., a Tucson, Ariz. establishment, is recalling approximately 19,200 pounds of chicken products due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the U.S. Department of Agricultures Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The products contain hydrolyzed soy protein, a known allergen which is not declared on the product label.

The fully-cooked chicken items were produced on various dates between Sept. 2, 2015, and March 1, 2016. The following products are subject to recall:

• 20-pound cases containing 5-pound bags of Carlottas Kitchen CHICKEN CHILE VERDE.
• 20-pound cases containing 5-pound bags of Carlottas Kitchen SPORTS CHICKEN, a chili-type entree.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number P-6006 inside the USDA mark of inspection. The chicken chile verde items were shipped to the companys restaurant in Nevada. The sports chicken items were shipped to the companys restaurants in Arizona.

The problem was discovered by FSIS personnel during a routine label review at the establishment. Hydrolyzed soy is a component of the chicken base used to manufacture the products.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.

Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.

Consumers and media with questions about the recall can contact Garret Boos, company operations manager, at (520) 903-1922.
