Place a wok over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and heat until just smoking. Add the chile peppers and stir fry for 1 minute. Remove with a spoon and place in a small bowl. Add remaining 3 tablespoons of oil and heat. Stir fry ginger for a few seconds, then add the chicken. Stir fry for 1 to 2 minutes until chicken if white and firm. Transfer chile peppers to wok. Give cornstarch mixture a stir and pour into the wok. Stir well, until all the ingredients are glossy. Transfer mixture to large serving platter and top with toasted pine nuts.
