In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, and chopped parsley.
Season with salt and black pepper, then mix everything thoroughly using your hands or a spoon until the ingredients are well combined.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1.5 cm (0.6 inches) thick.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Place the patties in the pan, ensuring they do not overlap. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the patties are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 75°C (165°F).
Remove the patties from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve warm on their own, or pair with a dipping sauce, salad, or buns for a complete meal.
