Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the gluten-free rice noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the noodles and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process, then set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. Once the butter is melted and foamy, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Stir in the tamari sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce is heated through.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing them gently to coat them evenly in the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are warmed through.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chopped green onions and cilantro.
Serve the garlic noodles hot, garnished with additional green onions and cilantro if desired, and a wedge of lime on the side for squeezing over the dish before eating.
