Preheat oven to 200°C. Combine couscous and boiling water in a heatproof bowl. Cover and set aside for 5 minutes or until water is absorbed.
Meanwhile, preheat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Spray lamb with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook lamb for 2 minutes each side or until browned. Place on a tray and place in oven. Cook for 5 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Remove from oven. Cover with foil and set aside for 5 minutes to rest. Thickly slice.
Stir couscous with a fork to separate grains. Add capsicum, cucumber, onion, rocket and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Stir to combine. Spoon couscous onto plates. Top with lamb and a dollop of tzatziki. Serve.
