Instructions
Prepare the cucumber and tomatoes by seeding and finely dicing them, then place them in a colander in the sink. Sprinkle a little bit of sea salt on them and toss to coat, set aside for 20-30 minutes to allow them to drain excess liquid. Side Note: This will intensify their flavor and ensure that the only liquid in the bowl is the lime juice.
Prepare the cucumber pico de gallo by combing the diced cucumber, tomato, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, and minced garlic in a bowl.
Add the lime juice and season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste; toss until evenly combined.
Cover with wrap and refrigerate to allow the flavors time to mingle.
