I am less familiar with speech recognition myself. I have implemented something similar many years ago, back when Google had a REST API that allowed you to upload audio and they would respond with the recognized words/sentence. I think they still have the same API available, though. They limited how much you could send, but for voice commands it was pretty solid. However, SpeechRecognition looks like a library worth trying out for this, as that seems like it could do offline processing depending on the underlying library. They also have some examples to look at.
