For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the serrano and chile de arbol peppers before chopping. If you prefer a thicker sauce, simmer it uncovered for a few minutes longer to reduce the liquid. Serve this Carne con Chile with warm tortillas, rice, or your favorite Mexican side dishes.
