  Wash chickens and wipe dry. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange, skin 
  side down, on a grill or broiler rack. Brush well with butter. Put in a 
  preheated broiler and cook under medium heat for 50 to 60 mins or until 
  tender, brushing occasionally with butter. Turn a few times during 
  cooking. While chicken is cooking, combine plums, garlic, coriander or 
  parsley and red pepper in a sauce pan; season with salt and pepper. Cook 
  on the stove long enough to heat through. To serve, arrange chicken on a 
  platter and garnish with tomatoes and cucumbers. Serve sauce separately 
  to pour over chicken. 
  NOTES : In southern Russia, a favorite method of preparing poultry is to 
  :         serve either spitted or broiled chicken with a sauce made with 
  :         green gooseberries, pounded walnuts, sourcream or fruits. One of 
  :         the most typical sauces is tkemali, which is made with a base of 
  :         wild or sour plums that grow only in the Georgian republic.  It 
  :         is not possible to duplicate the recipe outside of the region, 
  :         but a good substitute can be attempted. This is an excellent 
  :         entree for an outdoor meal.
