Mince 3 garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme.
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.
Place the cube steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the steaks. Ensure each steak is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
While the steaks marinate, prepare the herb butter. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, chopped parsley, and chives. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated. Set aside at room temperature.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the cube steaks from the marinade and shake off any excess marinade.
Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steaks reach at least 145°F internal temperature for safety.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Top each steak with a spoonful of the herb butter before serving.
Serve the grilled cube steaks with your choice of sides.
