Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Combine lemon juice, sugar, butter, and rum in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Arrange bananas cut-side down in the baking dish. Pour enough sauce over bananas to cover, reserving any extra sauce for serving.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bananas are soft and sticky, about 30 minutes.
- Bring water and brown rice to a boil in another saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.
- Combine black beans and diced tomatoes in a skillet over low heat; heat until warmed through, about 10 minutes.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage links; cook, flipping often, until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Slice sausage into small pieces.
- Scoop rice into a large bowl. Pour black beans on top. Sprinkle dill and basil on top. Add sausage; mix gently to combine. Serve bananas alongside.

[email protected]This dish is a great way to use up ripe bananas. I always have a few bananas that are about to go bad, so I make this dish all the time. It's a delicious and easy way to use them up.

[email protected]I'm allergic to coconut, so I used almond milk instead of coconut milk. It turned out great! I also added a little bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to give it a more fall flavor.

[email protected]I had some trouble finding banana leaves, so I used parchment paper instead. It worked just fine, but I think the banana leaves would have added a more authentic flavor.

[email protected]This dish was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I would recommend using less sugar if you don't like your food too sweet.
