HttpClient best approach
Use RestEase to create your own client library. Refit is a very similar and more popular library. IMO RestEase is an improvement over Refit and I prefer it, but either will solve your problems.

how to structure code for rest api calls

Use Refit, and let manage the live of HttpClient. Also, Refit will give you a strongly typed client around an API. All you have to write is the interface. Ain't that neat ? If you can't, use the HttpClientFactory to create the HttpClient instance: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/architecture/microservices/implement-resilient-applications/use-httpclientfactory-to-implement-resilient-http-requests
