Default chiselling mdf compared to wood

Hi,
I have a 1 inch thick mdf with oak veneer shelf which needs an L bracket
letting into the edge at either end near front for added support in an
alcove as the shelf sits flush with the wall. What is the best way to cut
out an area to let this in. Simply chisel out a channel, or saw grooves into
the area to ease the task ? Never chiselled mdf so not sure how it chisels
compared to standard wood.
Steve
