Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel or brushing off any dirt. Avoid rinsing them with water to prevent excess moisture. Slice the mushrooms into even, bite-sized pieces.
Prepare your other ingredients: mince the garlic, grate the ginger, slice the green onions, and set them aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to release their moisture and become golden brown.
Lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and half of the sliced green onions. Stir continuously for 1 minute to prevent burning and allow the aromatics to release their fragrance.
Pour in the coconut aminos and stir to coat the mushrooms evenly. Add the sea salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes, adjusting the seasoning to taste. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the liquid reduces slightly and the mushrooms are tender.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the stir-fried mushrooms with the remaining sliced green onions and fresh parsley or cilantro, if desired.
Serve hot as a side dish, or pair it with other Whole30-compliant dishes like grilled chicken or cauliflower rice.
