Beat egg in a small bowl and put flour in a separate bowl. Dip the chicken in the egg, then into the flour and fry in oil until light brown. Set aside.

In a bowl combine water, soy sauce, cornstarch, vinegar, wine, sugar, hoisin, chili paste and peppercorns. NOTE: If you desire a saucier GTC, increase the sauce ingredients by half.

Heat the Tbsp. of oil in a wok or large skillet and add the garlic and ginger. Stir-Fry for a few moments and add the bok choy and peppers.

Stir-Fry for only a minute, undercooking the veggies.

Add the sauce and stir until thickened then add the chicken to heat through and coat. Serve on or with rice on the side.
