1. Prepare grill.
2. To make the salsa, lightly brush tomatoes and shallots with first listed amount of olive oil. Place on grill. As the skin begins to char on one side of the tomato, turn it until most of the tomato has charred skin, about 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn the tomatoes. Turn the shallots as well, after 2 to 3 minutes on a side.
3. Place grilled shallots in a food processor and pulse until chopped. Quarter the tomatoes. Open the lid of the processor and add the tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, chopped cilantro, parsley, first listed amounts of salt and pepper, and second listed amount of olive oil. Pulse until just chopped; salsa should be chunky. Set aside. Alternatively if you do not have a food processor, mince the shallots and place in a medium bowl. Finely chop the tomatoes by hand and mix with the shallots, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, chopped cilantro, parsley, salt, pepper, and remaining second listed amount of olive oil. Mix to combine and set aside.
4. To prepare the swordfish, combine the third listed amount of olive oil, cilantro, garlic, second listed amounts of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Pour into a flat pan. Add swordfish steaks and coat both sides.
5. Place swordfish on grill. Grill for about 5 minutes and flip. Then grill for another 5 minutes, depending on thickness. When swordfish is done, a knife can easily penetrate the flesh.
6. To serve, divide the swordfish among four plates and top with salsa.
