In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to make the stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping halfway through, until pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they release their moisture.
Toss in the sliced bell peppers and continue to cook for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the bok choy and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the greens are wilted and the stems are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet.
Pour the stir fry sauce over the shrimp and vegetables, stirring to evenly coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and red pepper flakes if desired.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
