Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the root end of the bok choy; roughly chop, separating the stems and leaves. Cut off and discard the stems of the peppers; remove the cores, then thinly slice lengthwise. Halve the snow peas crosswise. Peel and medium dice the orange. In a bowl, combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and as much of the red pepper flakes as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be.
