Sentry Foods, a Tucker, Ga. establishment, is recalling approximately 21,570 pounds of frozen chicken entrées that may be contaminated with extraneous materials, specifically glass or hard plastic, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today.

The frozen chicken entrée items were produced and packaged on March 17, March 18, April 30, and May 13, 2016. The following products are subject to recall: 

  • 10-oz. tray pack in box of Saffron Road “LEMONGRASS BASIL CHICKEN WITH BASMATI RICE” with a “Best By” date of “08-19-2017” and lot number 0219-00207-016.
