Prep:
- Toss lamb with spice mix and olive oil.

- Trim green beans.
- Finely slice apricots.

Method:
- To make couscous, measure boiling water and stir in couscous and season with salt & pepper. Cover and stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Stir in apricots, olives, and mint.
- In a small saucepan, boil green beans in a little salted water for 3-4 minutes or until just tender.
- Preheat the oven to 200°c (180°c fan-forced).
- Wash and chop parsley.
- Serve couscous with lamb and capsicum and drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil and vinegar.
- Heat an oiled, grill pan over medium-high heat and grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked, with a golden, charred finish.
- Cut lemon into wedges.
- In a bowl, mix half of the zaatar seasoning, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. Set aside to marinate while preparing the potatoes.
- Place potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 8-10 minutes or until just tender. Drain and allow to dry slightly.
- Heat a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium to high heat. Add lamb in 300g batches along with capsicum. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking. Remove. Rest, loosely covered with foil.
- On a baking tray, toss the boiled potatoes with olive oil, remaining zaatar seasoning, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15-20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
- In a bowl, combine the mixed salad, tomatoes and parsley. Drizzle with lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss to combine.
- Arrange the grilled zaatar chicken and roasted potatoes on each plate. Serve with a side of mixed salad and lemon wedges.
