Instructions
- 1 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- 2 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.
- 3 Arrange bananas cut-side down in the baking dish. Pour enough sauce over bananas to cover, reserving any extra sauce for serving.
- 4 Bake in the preheated oven until bananas are soft and sticky, about 30 minutes.
- 5 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.
- 6 Combine black beans and diced tomatoes in a skillet over low heat; heat until warmed through, about 10 minutes.
- 7 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.
- 8 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.
