It might look severe but this is a good time to cut back the chilli plants foliage as they are pretty dormant over the winter. This is going to put the plants into hibernation. This means that in Spring the plants will flourish again and be at a good stage for early fruiting. You will increase their chances of survival massively if you move the plants inside a greenhouse (if they are not in one already). This will help keep the roots warm and protect them from frost.
