Add water and remaining 1/4 cup lemon juice to a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Put a steamer rack inside and spray with cooking spray. Arrange salmon fillets, skin sides down, on the prepared rack (fillets may overlap slightly). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 1 minute. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Salmon should flake easily with a fork. Sprinkle salmon with remaining salt and pepper. Spread cut sides of buns with aioli. Serve salmon in buns with arugula. Cook's Notes: No fresh lemons on hand? Substitute red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, or horseradish to add zip to mayonnaise. Use 1/4 cup water to replace the lemon juice in the pressure cooker. Fresh salmon fillets will work instead of frozen. Forget to thaw the salmon? There's no need to when using a pressure cooker.
