Cook the steak: Heat a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned steak strips in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Remove steak from the skillet and set aside.

Fry the eggs: In the same skillet (or a separate one if preferred), add a touch more oil if needed. Fry the large eggs sunny-side up or over easy, to your preference. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 2-3 minutes per egg.

Assemble the bowls: Divide the cooked rice among 4 serving bowls. Top each bowl with a portion of the spicy steak strips. Add a generous spoonful of salsa and a dollop of sour cream to each bowl. Carefully place one fried egg on top of each bowl.
