Drain and rinse the kidney beans thoroughly, then transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Using a fork or potato masher, mash the beans until they are mostly smooth with a few chunks for texture.
Finely chop the red onion, mince the garlic, and finely chop the parsley.
Add the chopped onion, garlic, parsley, chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, soy sauce, tomato paste, breadcrumbs, salt, and black pepper to the mashed beans. Mix everything thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly combined.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty approximately 1 inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the patties are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
While the patties cook, prepare your burger buns and any desired toppings such as lettuce, tomato, or avocado.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a bun and adding your favorite toppings.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
