Add the curry paste and sauté for another 30 seconds.
Add the chicken broth and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 3 minutes.
Add the bamboo shoots, coconut aminos, sriracha, coconut sugar, and lime juice. Stir to combine. Simmer for 3 minutes.
Add the coconut milk and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Simmer an additional 3 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
When the chicken is done, remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Shred the chicken with a fork and add it to the soup. Stir to combine. Place the pot over medium heat until chicken is warmed through.
