So last weekend I had my plants on my deck hardening off. I guess one of my plants blew off and I didn't notice it until today. So it spent 5 days laying on its side with slugs and snails munching on it. It has also lost 3/4 of its leaves and the soil was dry as dust when I found it.

The big kicker is that this was the second largest of my plants, now it looks like Sadder than Charlie Brown's Christmas tree..

Any chance it will recover?
 
Survive, yes.     Was it going into the ground or staying in a pot?    The pot it's in looks small for a plant that size.  
 
I swear some weird accident like this happens to one or more of my plants every year.    You just dont' know where the hits are going to come from.
 
 
Good luck.
 
You should have planted it in Fage yogurt instead.

But seriously, I had a honey roasted plant a couple years ago that I knew was fried, a tree branch broke onto it and snapped it in half shredding most of the leaves. I stuck it in the ground somewhere for the hell of it and a couple months later it came back to a somewhat healthy 2 foot tall jalapeño plant with pods...
 
Thanks for all of the replies.

The plant dropped a whole bunch more leaves, but it looks like there's life in the old girl yet.

I was meant to repot it into a five gallon container last weekend before it "disappeared". It will get repotted tomorrow.
 
It should bounce back.. It still has lots of green .. Give it some TLC and it will be okay.
 
it will be ok :)   
 
 
i thought i almost lost my reapers from 15 this year and this is how they are doing now!   they took off when the weather got up into the 60's
