Steps:
- 1. Peel and core the pineapple; dice the pineapple, reserving juice. Combine the pineapple, pineapple juice, and the next 6 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir well. Cover and let stand at room temperature at least 1 hour.
- 2. Place the steaks in a large, heavy-duty, zip-top plastic bag.
- 3. Combine the vinegar and the next 3 ingredients in a small bowl; stir well. Pour the marinade mixture over steaks. Seal the bag securely; place in a bowl. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour, turning occasionally.
- 4. Remove the steaks from the marinade. Discard the marinade.
- 5. If using, soak the mesquite wood chips in water for 30 minutes; drain. Heat the coals, and place the wood chips directly on the hot coals. Grill the tuna steaks, covered, over hot coals (400 to 500 degrees) for 3 to 4 minute on each side or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
- 6. Remove the steaks to a serving platter; keep warm. Stir cilantro into the salsa mixture. Top the steaks with salsa. Garnish with ciilantro sprigs if desired.
