The Ministry for Primary Industries says some chickens in batch 6728 may be undercooked, and the product should not be eaten.

There have been no reports of illness.

However, the ministry says people who have eaten the chicken and have health concerns, should seek medical advice.

The chicken was only sold at supermarkets in the North Island, and customers should return the product for a full refund.
