In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape them into oval patties about 1 inch thick.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey patties and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside (they don't need to be fully cooked yet).
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and onions, and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and onions, stirring to coat evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then add the beef broth, tomato paste, and additional Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Return the turkey patties to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the turkey patties are cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and the gravy has thickened.
Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving, if desired. Serve hot with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
