Clean the cremini mushrooms by wiping them gently with a damp cloth or paper towel. Slice them into even pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.
Mince the garlic cloves finely. Chop the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
Heat the olive oil and sesame oil together in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and the white parts of the green onions to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Increase the heat to high and add the sliced mushrooms. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.
Drizzle the low-sodium soy sauce over the mushrooms and sprinkle with ground black pepper. Add red chili flakes if desired for a bit of heat. Stir well and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the mushrooms are fully coated and the sauce has slightly reduced.
Remove from heat and garnish with the chopped green parts of the green onions.
Serve immediately as a low-carb side dish or pair with a protein of your choice for a complete meal.
