Method:
Set multi-cooker to Sauté on high. Add butter and olive oil. Once butter has melted, add onions and sauté for 2 minutes. Add garlic and sauté just until fragrant. Add red pepper and celery and cook for a few minutes.
Add broth and white wine and simmer for 5 minutes. Add tomato juice, chopped tomatoes with juice, tomato paste, oregano, thyme, bay leaf, crushed red pepper, salt, and lemon juice. Select Pressure Cook on high for 10 minutes. Once cooking has finished, let steam release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release the rest by opening the valve, making sure to vent steam away from you.

Turn multi-cooker off. Remove bay leaf. Add parsley and stir in. Serve with lemon wedges and toasted slices of crusty bread.
