In an attempt to create ramen pizza, we first just dumped a giant bowl of ramen all over a pizza. Didn't work that well! Then we got smart and made this. And it's every college kid's dream.
Cooked in a cast iron pan, the ramen crust gets crisp and caramelized on the bottom while the rest soaks up the delicious grease from the pepperoni and cheese. It’s a true lazy man’s recipe -- idiot-proof & done and delicious in 25 minutes. Plus, all that time kneading and rising pizza dough can now be spent eating more pizzas.

Ramen Crust Pizza Recipe
Total Time: 25 minutes
Yield: 10-inch pizza
INGREDIENTS:
4 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
2 (3-ounce) packages instant ramen noodles, noodles only
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 slices provolone cheese
1/2 cup pizza sauce
3 ounces shredded mozzarella
1 ounce pepperoni slices
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
DIRECTIONS:
Adjust oven rack to center position and preheat oven to 450°F.
In a medium pot, bring water and salt to a boil. Add noodles and cook until noodles separate but aren't completely soft, about 2 minutes. Drain well.
Heat olive oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add noodles and press with a spatula into an even layer that covers the bottom of the skillet. Reduce heat to low. Spread provolone in an even layer on the noodles. Spread pizza sauce in a thin layer over the cheese. Sprinkle mozzarella over that and top with pepperoni. Transfer to the oven and bake until browned and bubbly, about 15-20 minutes.
Sprinkle with Parmesan, slice and serve.
