Select 'saute' function on a 6 quart Instant Pot. Heat olive oil, then add the onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, until soft and translucent. Stir in the garlic and cook for one minute.

Add the white wine and deglaze the Instant Pot for 1-2 minutes.

Cancel the 'saute' function and add remaining ingredients. Stir everything up.
