1. Thinly slice the beef into bite-sized strips across the grain. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon of gluten-free soy sauce, cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Mix well and set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.
2. While the beef marinates, wash and trim the green onions. Cut them into 5 cm (2-inch) lengths.
3. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
4. Add the marinated beef to the wok in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the beef is just browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside on a plate.
5. In the same wok, add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6. Add the green onion pieces to the wok and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp.
7. Return the cooked beef to the wok. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of gluten-free soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, water, and salt. Toss everything together to ensure the beef and green onions are well coated in the sauce.
8. Season with ground black pepper to taste and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
9. Remove from heat and serve immediately. Pair with steamed rice or gluten-free noodles for a complete meal.
