Grilled Chicken With Herb Rub

• For the sage and rosemary herb rub:
• 2 Tbs. sweet paprika
• 2 Tbs. ground sage
• 1 Tbs. dried rosemary
• 1 Tbs. garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 1 chicken, 3 to 4 lb., cut into serving pieces; 4none-in or boneless chicken breast halves; orn2 bone-in or boneless chicken thighs
• Olive oil or vegetable oil for coating
• Wood chips or chunks, soaked for 30 minutesnnd drained

1. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for indirect grilling over medium-high heat and oil the grill rack. To make the herb rub, in a small bowl, mix together the paprika, sage, rosemary, garlic powder, cayenne, salt and black pepper. Coat the chicken with oil and sprinkle generously with the herb rub. Sprinkle the wood chips on the coals, or add in a perforated foil packet to a gas grill. Grill the chicken directly over medium-high heat, turning often, until the pieces are well browned, 6 to 10 minutes total. (Move the chicken to cooler spots on the grill if flare-ups occur.) Transfer the pieces to the unheated portion of the grill, cover the grill and cook. After 15 minutes, check for doneness by cutting into the chicken at the thickest part or testing with an instant-read thermometer. The chicken should show no sign of pink, and the internal temperature should register at least 160u0b0F. Continue cooking the chicken as needed, up to 10 minutes more, but be careful not to overcook. As the pieces finish cooking (the breasts and/or boneless pieces will be done first), transfer them to a platter and cover loosely with aluminum foil until ready to serve.
