In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, and the large egg. Mix well with your hands or a spatula.
Add breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt, and black pepper to the beef mixture. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Fold in the chopped parsley to bring freshness to the patties.
Take small portions of the mixture (about 2 tablespoons each) and shape them into mini patties, around 2 inches in diameter and about a half-inch thick.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the mini patties in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook each patty for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160Β°F (71Β°C) and they are browned and cooked through.
Remove patties from the skillet and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve warm as appetizers or in mini slider buns with your favorite toppings.
