Thinly slice the beef sirloin against the grain into bite-sized strips and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix coconut aminos, cornstarch, water, and black pepper until fully combined. This will be your sauce.
Slice the green onions into 2-inch pieces, separating the white parts from the green tops. Mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef strips in a single layer, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil to the skillet. Add the white parts of the green onions, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet, along with the sauce mixture. Toss everything together to coat well and cook for 2 more minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Stir in the green tops of the green onions and drizzle with sesame oil. Cook for another 30 seconds to a minute.
Remove from heat and adjust seasoning with salt if needed. Serve hot over rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.
