   Once the beef is cooked and the sauce has reduced, add the sliced red and green chilies. Stir in the cornstarch mixture to thicken the sauce.

5. Final Adjustments:
   Cook for an additional few minutes until the sauce has reached your desired consistency and the chilies are slightly softened. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.

6. Serve:
