Stir in broth and water, and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in shrimp, and cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp turn pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in hot sauce, salt, and pepper; cook 5 more minutes. Stir in scallions and parsley, and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover and let stand 5 minutes.
