Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups hot water and 2 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. While water comes to a boil, thinly slice green onions. Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Cut bok choy into 1/4-inch pieces.
Add chow mein noodles to the boiling water. Cook uncovered until tender, 1-2 min. Drain noodles using a colander, then rinse under cold water until noodles are cool. Leave noodles in colander to drain.
While noodles cook, add sweet chili sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, cornstarch, 1 tsp sugar and 1/3 cup water (dbl both for 4 ppl) to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Drain and rinse shrimp, using a colander. Pat dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then shrimp. Cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp just turn pink, 2-3 min. Transfer to a plate.
Heat the same pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions, garlic, peppers, peas and bok choy. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until peppers and bok choy are tender-crisp, 3-5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in shrimp and sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
Add noodles to the pan, then toss to coat. Divide chow mein between bowls. Sprinkle green onions over top.
