Thinly slice the beef sirloin against the grain into bite-sized strips.
In a medium bowl, toss the sliced beef with cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips and the carrot into matchsticks. Chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets. Mince the garlic cloves and grate the ginger.
In a large pan or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over high heat. Add the beef in a single layer and cook until browned on both sides, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry briefly, about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper, broccoli, and carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are vibrant and tender-crisp.
Return the beef to the pan. Add coconut aminos, beef broth, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir everything together, letting it simmer for 2 minutes for the flavors to meld.
Slice the green onions and scatter over the stir-fry for garnish.
Serve the stir-fried beef and vegetables immediately over bowls of cooked rice or noodles.
