2 large cucumbers, peeled
1 teaspoon salt
1 small chile pepper, seeded, minced

Slice the cucumbers lengthwise and remove seeds with a melon baller or spoon. Slice each half into 1/2 inch pieces. Place them in a bowl and sprinkle on the salt. Toss gently and let sit for 30 minutes. Drain well.

Place the cucumbers in a serving bowl and add the chilies, lime juice, and garlic. Toss well. Cover and let salad sit at room temperature for 1 hour before serving.
