In a medium glass bowl, combine the prawn, garlic, black pepper, 3 TBS olive oil, 1 TBSP lemon juice and 1/2 TSP of salt and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 TBSP of olive oil and add the bell peppers, cooking until crisp and charred, about 5-6 minutes.
Sprinkle with 1/4 TSP salt and transfer to a dish.
To the same skillet, add the couscous and cook for 1-2 minutes until toasted.
