(UNDATED-AP) 4,925 pounds of ready-to-eat chicken and beef products, made by Allison's Gourmet Kitchens Ltd. of Oklahoma and distributed to delicatessens in Arkansas, Mississippi, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas, because they may be contaminated with listeria.

Products recalled were chicken salad distributed in Oklahoma and Texas bearing use-by dates of Sept. 16 and the codes 08015 or 08018, and chicken salad with use-by dates of Sept. 23 or Oct. 2 and the code 08012.
