A clean and more reliable solution you could use is described below:

var client = new RestClient("http://{URL}/rest/api/2");
var request = new RestRequest("issue/", Method.POST);

client.Authenticator = new HttpBasicAuthenticator("user", "pass");

var issue = new Issue
{
    fields =
        new Fields
        {
            description = "Issue Description",
            summary = "Issue Summary",
            project = new Project { key = "KEY" }, 
            issuetype = new IssueType { name = "ISSUE_TYPE_NAME" }
        }
};

request.AddJsonBody(issue);

var res = client.Execute<Issue>(request);

if (res.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.Created)
    Console.WriteLine("Issue: {0} successfully created", res.Data.key);
else
    Console.WriteLine(res.Content);

Answer 2

dont do

request.AddParameter("data", request.JsonSerializer.Serialize(issueToCreate));

instead try:

request.AddBody(issueToCreate);
