Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Clean the mushrooms with a damp paper towel and remove the stems. Set the caps aside and finely chop the stems.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the red onion, minced garlic, and chopped mushroom stems, and sauté for about 4 minutes, until the onion is translucent.
In a bowl, combine the sautéed mixture with lean ground beef, low-sodium soy sauce, black pepper, and half of the chopped parsley.
Fill each mushroom cap with about a tablespoon of the beef mixture, forming a small mound on top.
Wrap each filled mushroom with a strip of lean beef. Secure the beef with a toothpick if necessary.
Place the mushrooms on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the wrapped mushrooms with the remaining olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and the mushrooms are tender.
Garnish with the remaining parsley before serving.
