Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 2 inches long. Set aside.
Peel the onions and slice them into thin half-moons. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a mixing bowl, combine the beef strips, coconut aminos, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for 10 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Once hot, add the sliced onions and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until they become soft and slightly caramelized. Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Increase the heat to high and add the marinated beef strips in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes without stirring to allow a nice sear.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and stir the beef and garlic together. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through.
Return the caramelized onions to the skillet and toss everything together. Drizzle sesame oil over the mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for 1 more minute.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions, if desired.
Serve immediately as a standalone dish or pair with steamed broccoli or cauliflower rice for a complete keto-friendly meal.
