1. Toast the Garlic
Warm the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add thinly sliced garlic with a dash of salt and pepper. Stir frequently for about 2 to 3 minutes until the garlic is golden brown. Transfer the garlic to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the infused oil in the pot.
2. Cook Shallots and Mushrooms
Add the sliced shallots to the pot, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper. Fry them for 3 to 4 minutes until they soften. Add the quartered mushrooms and cook for about 4 minutes until they begin to brown.
3. Simmer the Broth
Pour in the chicken broth, bring it to a gentle simmer, and let it cook for 30 to 40 minutes.
4. Add Remaining Ingredients
Add the sliced celery, cooked chicken, fish sauce (if using), and squeeze the lime quarters over the soup. Stir in the celery leaves and fresh cilantro and season with chili oil, hot sauce, or yuzu kosho to taste.
