  • About

This is another creation of Commander’s chef Jamie Shannon, who died tragically young but left behind many warm memories. The sauce is made with the most expensive ingredient in the world, saffron (don’t worry—a little bit goes a long way) and fresh oysters.

Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 stick (8 Tbsp.) butter
  • 3 cups bread crumbs

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a large baking pan and set aside.
  2. To make the crust: Melt the butter and blend it with the remaining crust ingredients to form a pasty mixture. Divide this into 4 portions and cover the top of each fillet
