Cook couscous by pouring 250ml boiling water over it, covering, and letting sit for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
Dice chicken, zucchini, peppers, and onion into bite-sized pieces.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat and sauté chicken until cooked through.
Add zucchini, peppers, and onion to the pan and cook until tender-crisp.
Stir in cherry tomatoes, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper, cooking for 2 minutes.
Combine the cooked couscous with the chicken and vegetable mixture in a large bowl.
Drizzle with lemon juice, toss well, and serve.
