Place the stainless steel inner pot inside the Instant Pot®. Press Saute and set time to 4 Minutes . Add 3 tbsp olive oil, the chicken with the marinade, and the pineapple. Once ready, add the sweet and sour sauce and stir well.
Close and lock the Instant Pot® lid. Make sure the steam release handle is turned to Sealing. Press Pressure Cook, pressure level High, and set time to 4 Minutes.
When done cooking, press Cancel and turn the steam release handle to Venting. Once all the pressure is released, open the lid.
You can serve as a single dish on the pineapple garnished with almonds and cilantro or accompanied with whatever you want.
