You don't have to actually highlight the paragraph. Just hit
alt+L while typing or move the cursor to the paragraph in question and
hit alt+l. Now for some reason, using the mouse to position the cursor
make alt+l not work so if you position with the mouse, just hit an
arrow key to move the cursor with the keyboard and then use the
shortcut.
