I believe the answer is:

aligned

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'after a shuffle' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'dealing is in order' is the wordplay.
'is in order' is an anagram indicator (the letters in a new order).
'dealing' anagrammed gives 'ALIGNED'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for aligned that I've seen before include "Dealing (anag) - straight?" , "Linearly positioned" , "in a row" , "Arranged in rows" , "Brought into the correct relationship (with)" .)
