Thinly slice the beef into bite-sized pieces, about 3-5 mm thick, and set aside in a bowl.
In a small mixing bowl, prepare the yakiniku sauce by combining the gluten-free soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, rice vinegar, chopped green onions, and sesame seeds. Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
Pour half of the sauce over the sliced beef, reserving the other half as a dipping sauce. Mix well to coat the beef, cover, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
While the beef marinates, wash and cut the vegetables (zucchini and mushrooms into slices, bell peppers into strips) into grill-friendly pieces.
Heat a grill pan, barbecue grill, or electric tabletop grill to medium-high heat. Lightly grease the surface with some sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the beef slices and vegetables in batches. Cook the beef for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until it is cooked to your preference. Grill the vegetables until they are tender and slightly charred.
Serve the freshly grilled meats and vegetables with a bowl of steamed rice and the reserved dipping sauce on the side for extra flavor. Enjoy your Gluten-Free Yakiniku meal!
