In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free option), sesame oil, and rice vinegar.
Add in the garlic powder, ginger powder, Swerve sweetener, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to ensure the sweetener begins to dissolve in the liquid.
Dissolve the xanthan gum in the 0.25 cup of water to prevent clumping. Gradually whisk this mixture into the sauce to help it thicken slightly.
Pour the mixture into a small saucepan over medium heat.
Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce begins to thicken slightly. Be careful not to boil the sauce.
Remove from heat and let it cool. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
Transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Shake well before use in your favorite stir fry, adjusting the amount according to taste and preference.
