Instructions

In a small bowl mix the rosemary with the brown sugar, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.
In a shallow pan, drizzle the oil over the chicken and toss to coat. Sprinkle the chicken evenly with the rosemary mixture and let marinate for 30 minutes and up to 2 days.
Prepare a hot charcoal fire or heat a gas grill with all burners on medium high for 10 minutes. Clean the hot grate with a wire brush and then lubricate it with an oil-soaked paper towel. OR turn off the burners and spray with cooking spray. Then relight grill.
Put the chicken on the grate and grill (covered on a gas grill or uncovered over a charcoal fire) until one side has dark grill marks, about 8-10 minutes for large thighs and bone-in breasts or 5 minutes for medium and small thighs and boneless chicken breasts.
Turn and continue grilling for about 5 to 6 minutes longer for large thighs or 4 to 5 minutes for medium and small thighs. The internal temperature for chicken breasts should reach 130-135 degrees and chicken thighs should reach about 145-150 degrees. When the chicken is pierced with a fork the juices should run clear.
Remove from grill and let rest for 8 minutes before serving.
